The several boys present who were not yet girlfriends all turned their attention to her.
Song Daming gave everyone a brief introduction.
When people heard that such a beautiful and elegant girl was actually Song Daming's colleague, working at Gu Wei's restaurant, many people had some thoughts.
However, since they had just met and were not familiar with each other, neither of them dared to say any of the half-joking or half-serious jokes.
"Wenyi, Fei-jie, please sit next to me."
As the hostess and a girl herself, Chu Sitong warmly invited the two to sit down near her.
"OK."
Zhou Wenyi and Jian Fei naturally agreed.
Whether this arrangement was a coincidence or something else is unknown.
Gu Wei happened to be face to face with Zhou Wenyi.
Even when Gu Wei turned his head to chat with Song Daming, he could still feel a warm gaze.
A smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.
Song Daming saw it clearly and felt that the two of them might be flirting and there was something going on between them.
But in this situation, there were other people besides them, so he didn't dare to make a fuss.
That would only make things awkward and wouldn't be pleasant.
After that, two or three more people arrived.
Another round of pleasantries and introductions was inevitable.
Once everyone had arrived, the dishes were served.
Everyone ate and chatted.
It was clearly Song Daming's birthday, but Gu Wei became the center of attention.
Such a usurpation of the main topic was not what Gu Wei had hoped for, and he skillfully avoided the subject with a few words.
Later, everyone understood what Gu Wei meant.
The original intention was to take this opportunity to improve relations, so of course I wouldn't want to make things worse and cause offense.
Therefore, Gu Wei felt much more at ease.
After several rounds of drinks and five courses of food,
Song Daming, the birthday boy, was quite drunk from all the drinking.
On the contrary, Gu Wei, who always boasted that he had a low alcohol tolerance, was neither red nor pale, and seemed to be fine.
With blurry, drunken eyes, Song Daming exclaimed, "Dude, you can really hold your liquor now? Have you been practicing lately?"
"I guess so."
Gu Wei thought back to the 1980s, when he would drink with Gu Jianguo whenever he had free time, except on certain occasions. It made sense to say that they were practicing together.
Song Daming nodded and said, "No wonder."
As he spoke, he put his arm around Gu Wei's shoulder and whispered, "Tell me the truth, did you train with some beautiful girls?"
Gu Wei elbowed him without any politeness, "Get lost! Put away your lewd and worthless thoughts."
Song Daming grinned.
Across from her, Zhou Wenyi's face was flushed from drinking. She rested her chin on the back of her hand and watched the two laughing and joking with their arms around each other. Her watery eyes were now filled with undisguised affection.
She couldn't help but fantasize that one day Gu Wei could show such a relaxed and cheerful smile in front of her.
She'll be so happy she'll want to spin around in circles.
The sight of Zhou Wenyi staring at Gu Wei, witnessed by some of the boys who were initially interested in her, instantly silenced them.
Because most people know their own worth.
Previously, even though Gu Wei was an orphan and had no money, he simply couldn't compete with her because of her handsome face.
Now that they're successful and wealthy, there's even less reason for them to fail.
However, there are always exceptions.
No matter the era, there are always ordinary yet confident people.
Wang Dawei had a gut feeling that Gu Wei might not be interested in this kind of naive and innocent rich girl right now.
At the same time, he felt that his conditions were not bad, and if he took this opportunity, he could save 10 years of hard work.
So he tidied his hair before standing up with his wine glass, walking over to Zhou Wenyi, and bending down to say, "Hi, beautiful."
Zhou Wenyi was gazing intently at Gu Wei across from her, her eyes filled with affection.
Suddenly a boy appeared beside her, his breath reeking of alcohol. Startled, she frowned in displeasure and moved aside.
"Is there something you need?"
Wang Dawei was not unaware of Zhou Wenyi's reaction.
However, he was always quite confident, and since the person next to him had gone to the restroom and there was an empty seat, he plopped down on it.
"I have a good relationship with Da Ming and Gu Wei. Friends of friends are my friends. It's nice to meet you. Would it be convenient to add each other on WeChat?"
Zhou Wenyi did not believe what he said was true.
Because, apart from being close to Song Daming, Gu Wei, while gentle, also appeared distant to some of the other classmates present.
Clearly, their relationship wasn't that good.
"I'm sorry, it's not convenient."
Wang Dawei was surprised by the other party's firmness, without even a hint of tact, and immediately felt embarrassed and annoyed.
Gu Wei noticed something was going on with the two of them and subconsciously frowned.
He beckoned directly to Zhou Wenyi, "Wenyi, come here, I need to talk to you about something."
Zhou Wenyi's eyes lit up instantly, her heart pounded, and she happily got up and went around to Gu Wei and the others.
Although Song Daming was somewhat drunk, he was still relatively sober. He didn't expect Wang Dawei to be so tactless, so he immediately stood up and left his seat.
When Zhou Wenyi walked over, she naturally sat in Song Daming's seat.
"Brother Gu, have you had too much to drink?"
Gu Wei's nose was filled with the sweet fragrance emanating from Zhou Wenyi. He asked gently, "No. What about you?"
"Hmm, I'm a little drunk." Zhou Wenyi gestured with her fingers.
Gu Wei's gaze fell on those slender, white fingers.
